Paraguay has reopened its embassy in Jerusalem, a move that marks a diplomatic win for Israel as it faces increasing international isolation because of the Gaza war.
In a world increasingly divided by conflict and misunderstanding, moments of genuine solidarity stand out as beacons of hope. Such was the case when Paraguay’s President Santiago Peña announced that his country’s embassy in Israel would soon return to Jerusalem.
Paraguay continues to stand with Israel in tangible ways, including at United Nations forums. Of note, is Paraguay’s vote in favor of the establishment of the State of Israel in 1947. Israel remembers this sign of loyalty, which is surfacing again this week in Jerusalem.
The embassy’s relocation also aims to strengthen ties between Israel and Paraguay, with Peña expressing hope that “very good relations” will become “great relations.” Foreign Minister Rubén Ramírez Lezcano noted that this move is part of a broader strategy to deepen ties based on shared democratic values.
President of Paraguay Santiago Peña spoke about his visit to Israel and his nation's connection to the Jewish state.
